Each time that you login or use your account, you’ll start by selecting your preferred crop year, which will default to the latest crop year saved. The crop year ties your activities and records together under a single point of reference so that you can organize and view information year over year.

When you first use your account, you’ll be prompted to set up your crop year and primary crop, as shown below (you can change it later, if needed). This initial setup for crop year needs to completed online so that the system can organize your records, and prior to using the mobile app for the first time.

The online account has more options that you can review during initial setup, or change as needed, such as adding additional crop years, adding seed varieties to your purchased materials used during planting, and more. Follow these steps or scroll down to watch our video:

DIY data management for the FmX integrated display
collapse icon

While your local Trimble Authorized Reseller can provide you with robust, fully supported solutions for wireless data transfer powered by higher-end modems such as the DCM-300® or GX450® , there are lower-end solutions for those of us willing to put in a little extra effort. Keep in mind that this is not an officially supported configuration, but with a little work, you can connect a few very specific off-the-shelf components to allow your Trimble FmX® display to leverage a simple wireless hotspot from your smartphone.

Components:

USB to Ethernet - The success of this configuration is made possible by one a very specific USB-to-ethernet adapter: the TRENDnet USB 2.0 to 10/100 Ethernet Adapter with the TU2-ET100 Chipset (buy on Amazon). This will Connect to the USB port on your FmX, and you can connect the ethernet side to almost any other source of connectivity.

Ethernet to WiFi - While we have generally used the IOGEAR Universal Ethernet to Wi-Fi N Adapter (buy on Amazon) due to it’s very low price point, theoretically any ethernet-to-network adapter should work, as long as it appears to be source of access to the ethernet cable.

WiFi Hotspot - Lastly, turning on the WiFi hotspot feature on your smartphone (many carriers will charge extra for this functionality) will provide the final connection to the internet, so you can send and receive files. For less than $40 USD in parts, there is little to lose if you want to give it a try.

Getting set up:

  1. Purchase the components listed above
  2. Purchase a Trimble Ag Software Plan and Display Connections (formerly Vehicle Connections) license (each display will take a display connection and additional Display Connections can be purchased beyond the included plan)
  3. Log in to your online account and add your FmX serial number under Farm>Equipment>Devices (learn more)
  4. Set up a vehicle and assign the Device, and a Vehicle Connection to the Vehicle under Farm>Equipment>Vehicles
  5. Connect the TrendNet USB to Ethernet adapter to the back of your FmX
  6. Connect the Ethernet to your IOGEAR Ethernet to Wi-Fi N Adapter
  • Note: you will have to follow the instructions provided with your adapter to connect it to your preferred WiFi hotspot ahead of time (this step is usually done using a computer or WPS)
  1. From your FmX display, turn on wireless data transfer by adding the Office Sync module in the Settings (the password to access the settings is 2009)

That’s it! Now you have wireless data transfer whenever you're in range of Wi-Fi coverage.

Need help? While this is not an officially supported hardware configuration, please contact our customer support team if you have any questions or issues with configuring Trimble Ag Software or your FmX. Every annual Trimble Ag Software Plan comes with access to our support network to help farmers.

Implement Reporting - for the FmX display and FmX Plus app
collapse icon

If an operator exceeds the functional speed limit for an implement, possible damage can occur to the implement, the vehicle, the crop, or the field. The FmX integrated display or TMX-2050 display (using the FmX Plus app) can send information to Fleet in the Trimble Ag Software solution regarding the speed of vehicles and implements.

For Implement Setup settings, from the configuration page select implement: implement-configuration-22

On the Reporting tab, these settings determine the information that is sent from the FmX integrated display or TMX-2050 display to Fleet in the Trimble Ag software: implement-configuration-23

Setting Description
Maximum Transport Speed The functional speed limit for transporting the implement. The options are On or Off. Maximum Transport Speed is used to determine when a vehicle enters the “speeding” state. The minimum of Max Transport and Max Moving speed will be used in this determination; Max moving speed is configured under the vehicle setup (Monitoring tab). If Maximum Transport Speed is turned off, the Maximum Moving Speed for the vehicle is used to determine the “speeding” threshold (if Maximum Moving Speed is turned on).
Maximum Operating Speed The functional speed limit for the implement when coverage logging is on. The options are On or Off. Maximum Operating Speed is used to determine when the vehicle enters a “rushing” state.
Stopped to Delayed Timeout The length of time the vehicle can be paused before the vehicle is considered delayed. The options are On or Off. Stopped to Delayed Timeout is the amount of time that will pass after the vehicle has entered a “stopped” state before it’s considered to be in a “delayed” state (and the operator may be prompted to select a reason for the delay). Note: the timeout value is set in minutes.
Vehicle Monitoring - for the FmX Display and FmX Plus App
collapse icon

In the Monitoring tab you can select to send information about the vehicle speed to Fleet in the Trimble Ag Software. Any amount that the vehicle travels over this speed is reported as speeding.

From the Configuration page, select Autopilot (Vehicle):

vehicle-configuration-24

Select the Monitoring tab. If you set the Maximum Moving Speed to Off this means that the ""speeding"" state will not be used for the vehicle.

vehicle-configuration-25

In the Enter the maximum moving speed for this vehicle screen, tap the buttons to set the maximum moving speed for the vehicle and then tap OK. This sets the threshold speed, above which the vehicle will considered to be ""speeding"". See also the Maximum Transport Speed that can be configured as part of Implement Setup.

vehicle-configuration-26

In this example, the Maximum Moving Speed has been set to 15 mph.

Delay reasons
collapse icon

If delay reasons are enabled, and if the stopped to delayed timeout threshold is reached, the operator will be presented with a screen to explain the reason for the delay. This delay reason will be reported in the Trimble Ag Software.

productivity-34-1024x640

If an operator exceeds the functional speed for an implement, possible damage can occur to the implement, the vehicle, the crop or the field. The GFX-750 or TMX-2050 display can send information about the implement status to FarmStream Fleet in the Trimble Ag Software solution.

To set up the implement, go to the PRODUCTIVITY tab in the Implement settings. Edit an existing implement or create a new one.

Note: The PRODUCTIVITY tab is only visible if the Operator Sign in feature is turned on. This feature is turned on in the Trimble Ag Software account under the “Data Transfer” menu and choosing “Settings”. If AutoSync is not enabled, the feature can be turned on by opening the Operator app, tapping on the gear and enabling operators.

These settings determine what information is sent about the implement from the Utilization app to FarmStream Fleet.

The table below describes the different settings options:

Setting Description
Maximum Transport Speed The functional speed limit for transporting the implement. The options are On or Off and a numerical value for the speed. Maximum Transport Speed is used to determine when a vehicle enters the “speeding” state. The minimum of Maximum Transport and Maximum Moving speed will be used in this determination; Maximum moving speed is configured under the vehicle setup (PRODUCTIVITY tab). If Maximum Transport Speed is turned off, the Maximum Moving Speed for the vehicle is used to determine the “speeding” threshold (if Maximum Moving Speed is turned on).
Maximum Operating Speed The functional speed limit for the implement when coverage logging is on. The options are On or Off and a numerical value for the speed. Maximum Operating Speed is used to determine when the vehicle enters a “rushing” state.
Stopped to Delayed Timeout The length of time the vehicle can be paused before the vehicle is considered delayed. The options are On or Off. Stopped To Delayed Timeout is the amount of time that will pass after the vehicle has entered a “stopped” state before it’s considered to be in a “delayed” state (and the operator may be prompted to select a reason for the delay). Note: the value is set in seconds but displayed in minutes

To set the Maximum Transport speed, tap on Maximum Transport Speed and enter a value in the range indicated. Select the Units, if required. Tap on the green check to save.

Setting up the Operator for FarmStream Reporting
collapse icon

Signing in as an operator is not required for Utilization or FarmStream to run, but if you want to see operator information in the application, you must sign in. In order to use operator login with PIQ, the Enable Operators (Operator Sign In) feature must be turned on. This feature can be turned on in the Trimble Ag Software account by logging in and going to Data Transfer -> Settings -> Syncing and turning on Operator Sign in. If AutoSync is not enabled, this feature can be turned on by opening the Operators app, tapping on the gear and clicking on Enable Operators.

If AutoSync is not being used, to set up operator information, turn on your TMX-2050,  GFX-750 or GFX-350 display. You should see the Operators app. Tap on the Operators app icon to launch it.

op-app-2-1024x640

Operators can be created in the Fleet page of the Trimble Ag Software under ""Operators"" or under the Farm page under ""People."" All operators in the TMX-2050, GFX-750 and GFX-350 display’s organization are automatically sent to the TMX-2050, GFX-750 and GFX-350 display when it has connectivity. These operators can be seen in the Operators app.  If operators in the Fleet or Farm page are changed, any changes will be visible in the Operator app after the app has been killed and restarted, or when the TMX-2050 or GFX-750 display has rebooted.

Operators can also be created locally on the display, but they will not be sent to the Trimble Ag Software to be seen on the Fleet page. These local operators will not show in the Connected Farm menu in the Operator app.

Login to the Operator app in order to track who is using the vehicle, for reporting in the Utilization app and FarmStream:

Release Notice

This is the May 2020 release of the FarmStream Fleet Setup Guide. It applies to version 1.0 of the FarmStream Fleet solution.

Product Warranty Information

For applicable product warranty information, please refer to the Warranty Card included with this product, or consult your Trimble reseller.

Why would I use FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

FarmStream Fleet provides more detailed vehicle utilization and sensor data using the FmX®, GFX-750™, GFX-350™ or TMX-2050™ display and a wireless connection. There is no need for a DCM-300 modem when using FarmStream Fleet, but the DCM-300 can be used as a wireless connection.

Farming operations with more than a few vehicles and hired operators may struggle to keep tabs on equipment and operator productivity—the Fleet solution targets operations where managers are responsible for a staff of operators but cannot sit with each employee to monitor their performance and compliance.

What are the differences between FarmStream and traditional Fleet?
collapse icon

FarmStream Fleet provides vehicle utilization data using the FmX, GFX-750 or TMX-2050 display. Utilization settings are configured in the display instead of the Trimble Ag Software interface.

There is no need for a DCM-300 modem when using FarmStream Fleet, but the DCM-300 modem can be used with FarmStream Fleet as a communication device.

The FarmStream Fleet solution provides some different features than traditional Fleet. For a detailed comparison, refer to the Feature Comparison Matrix.

How do I purchase FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

FarmStream Fleet is included as part of the Trimble Ag Software Display Connection license. Display Connection Licenses are purchased separately from the Farmer Core licenses.

The Display Connection license is assigned to a vehicle in Fleet in the Trimble Ag Software.

Can I use both FarmStream and traditional Fleet on a vehicle at the same time?
collapse icon

No.

If a vehicle is associated with an FmX, GFX-750, GFX-350 or TMX display that has FarmStream Fleet enabled, you cannot also associate it with a DCM-300 modem to use for traditional Fleet.

How can I tell if a vehicle is set up to use FarmStream or traditional Fleet?
collapse icon

In the Fleet site select a vehicle and go to its individual vehicle page. This page will show whether FarmStream has been enabled. It will say "FarmStream on" or "FarmStream off". "FarmStream on" means it is using the FarmStream Fleet features, and "FarmStream off" means it is not using Farmstream.

Where can I buy FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

From your Trimble Reseller. The part numbers and price for a license that includes FarmStream Fleet (which is part of a Display Connection License and also requires a Farmer Core or equivalent license) is the same as for traditional Fleet.

Is traditional Fleet changing?
collapse icon

Yes.

With the release of FarmStream Fleet, you are no longer able to use the productivity features of traditional Fleet with both the DCM-300 modem and the FmX or TMX display.

The productivity features of traditional Fleet is now based on the DCM-300 modem and does not include information from the FmX or TMX display, for example, inDelay Reasons.

Do I need to create a separate Trimble Ag Software account / organization for my FarmStream Fleet vehicles?
collapse icon

No. You can use the same account and organization that you use for your traditional Fleet vehicles.

What equipment do I need to use FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

FmX integrated display, GFX-750 display, GFX-350 display or TMX-2050 display.

A Cable to connect the display to the vehicle. The GFX-750 and GFX-350 display also requires an additional adapter cable.

Part Number Description
86995-01 Cable Assy, FarmStream, CAN diagnostic port to FmX integrated display / TM-200 Module
90147-01 Cable Assy, Autopilot™ system and FarmStream, Vehicle CAN interface, John Deere R & RT series
87754-01 Cable Assy, FarmStream, Vehicle CAN interface, Rogator 2005 Models 8841 & 984
115447 Cable Assy, FarmStream, CAN Interface Adapter for GFX-750, GFX-350

A WAN gateway device (Wi-Fi, Cellular, etc.) for communications, such as the DCM-300, SNM941 or GX450 modem.

For more details and recommended hardware, refer to the FarmStream Fleet setup guide and the FarmStream Cable guide.

Can I associate a vehicle with both a DCM-300 modem and an FmX, GFX-750, GFX-350 or TMX-2050 display?
collapse icon

If you have not turned on FarmStream Fleet for an FmX or TMX-2050 display, you can assign a vehicle to both the DCM-300 modem and the FmX or TMX-2050 display. You can't assign a DCM-300 modem to a vehicle with a GFX-750 or GFX-350 display. If you turn on FarmStream for a vehicle with any type of display, DO NOT ASSOCIATE THE VEHICLE WITH A DCM-300 MODEM AS ITS TELEMATICS DEVICE - FARMSTREAM WILL NOT WORK PROPERLY. The DCM-300 modem (or other modem used) works in the background as the communication device.

If you select a display for a vehicle, this indicates which vehicle you want your Data Transfer (Office Sync or AutoSync) data to be associated with for that particular vehicle.

On which Trimble displays is FarmStream available?
collapse icon

Currently, FarmStream Fleet is available on the FmX, GFX-750, GFX-350 or TMX-2050 displays only. It is not available on the CFX-750TM display.

What do I need to do on the FmX, GFX-750, GFX-350 or TMX-2050 display to set up FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

To run FarmStream Fleet on the FmX or TMX-2050 display using the FmX Plus app, you need the free FarmStreamplugin.

To run FarmStream with PIQ on the TMX-2050, GFX-350 or GFX-750 display you must enable operators as a first step and use the Utilization app.

Firmware version 10.01 or higher is required for the FmX and version 4.3.1 or higher is required for the TMXusing the FmX+ app. Version 5.5 or higher is required for TMX using the PIQ app. Version 1.5 or higher is required for the GFX-750 display. Any version of firmware on the GFX-350 will support FarmStream.

For more information, refer to the FarmStream Fleet Setup Guide.

Can a vehicle that is running FarmStream Fleet also use the File Transfer (Office Sync) or AutoSync functionality?
collapse icon

Yes. AutoSync is only available on displays with Precision-IQ.

Can a vehicle running FarmStream Fleet also use the Vehicle Sync functionality?
collapse icon

The Vehicle Sync functionality requires a DCM-300 modem. The vehicle cannotuse the Vehicle Sync functionality if no DCM-300 modem is installed.

Can I provision a GX450 or SNM941 modem in the website for FarmStream Fleet?
collapse icon

No. There is no need to provision the GX450 or SNM941 modem in FarmStream Fleet (ie associate it with a vehicle), the modem is just a router for the display.

What version of firmware is required to run FarmStream?
collapse icon

Version 10.01 is required for the FmX and Version 4.3.1 is required for the TMX using the FmX+ app. Version 5.5 or higher is required for TMX using the PIQ app. Version 1.5 or higher is required for the GFX-750 display. All versions of firmware for the GFX-350 display will support FarmSteram.

Note on Equipment: Traditional and FarmStream Set Up for Fleet
collapse icon

Traditionally, the DCM-300 modem has been the primary device used to communicate vehicle position, sensor data, and other information from a vehicle to the Fleet website. While the DCM-300 modem can still be used with Fleet, FarmStream is the preferred set up for Fleet. FarmStream uses a specially configured TMX-2050, GFX-750, GFX-350, or FmX display, together with a communication device (such as the DCM-300, SNM941, GX450 or RV55 modem) to send operation data from the vehicle to view in Fleet. For information on how to set up a vehicle for Fleet using FarmStream, please refer to this guide.

Note: Firmware Version 10.01 or higher is required for the FmX and Version 4.3.1 or higher is required for the TMX to run FarmStream. Version 1.5 or higher is required for the GFX-750 to have full FarmStream functionality. (Limited FarmStream functionality is available for earlier versions of GFX-750 firmware.) Any version of firmware for the GFX-350 supports FarmStream.

Depending on whether you set up a vehicle the traditional way with a DCM-300 modem or with FarmStream, different features for that vehicle are viewable in the Fleet website. Please refer to this chart to compare the features available for a vehicle with the traditional set up and FarmStream set up.

No matter how you choose to set up a vehicle, the vehicle data is available in the same Fleet user interface and is accessible from the same user login. Different vehicles in the same organization can be set up using either traditional or FarmStream equipment, if desired. The way to tell which version of Fleet a vehicle is using is by going to the Vehicles page and selecting a vehicle. If a vehicle is using the traditional set up, it will say ""FarmStream Off"", and if a vehicle is using the FarmStream setup it will say ""FarmStream On"".  See below image that illustrates this:

Importing Operators
collapse icon

Operators can be imported from a .csv or .xls file, or from an existing organization. The following is an example of a .csv or .xls file import:

LoginID First Name Last Name Job Title Group
BSmith1 Bob Smith Operator1 GroupA
JSmith1 John Smith Operator1 GroupB

Operators are added to the Operator list or Group specified if the Login ID, Last Name, and First Name fields are specified and the Login ID does not already exist. If any row fails to import, the import will continue with the next row.

The check for Login ID duplication is not case sensitive (that is, the system will not create JSmith1 if jsmith1 already exists).

You must create groups in the user interface before you import operators.

  • If the Group does not exist the operator is not imported and the row fails.
  • If no Group is specified in the .csv file, the operator is created and added to the Unassigned list.
  • Group is a match if it contains the same characters, regardless of case (that is, GroupA or groupa).

Job Title is added for each job title in the file and depends on the number of characters. It is a match if it contains the same characters, regardless of case (for example, Foreman or foreman).

An Import report is created that includes the following:

  • Any rows that did not import due to insufficient or duplicate data.
  • The number of successful logins created.
  • The groups that could not be found during the import.

To import operators from a .csv or .xls file:

  1. In the Operators tab, select Import Operators from the Manage drop-down list.
  2. Click From a File and then click Choose File.
  3. Navigate to and select the required file and then click OK.
  4. Click Import.
  5. Click Done.
Exporting Operators
collapse icon

  1. In the Operators tab, select Export Operators from the Manage drop-down list.
